Polyhistor 

A polyhistor is a person of great erudition whose knowledge spans many fields. The definition includes having both an expert level of knowledge in diverse specific fields and broad general knowledge. Arguably a polyhistor is one possible type of polymath. See the article polymath for a broader discussion.

The term has been used in a pejorative sense to mock "the erudite compilers who had loaded seventeenth-century bookshelves to breaking point with their huge folios" and their "ridiculous efforts to capture all knowledge in single encyclopedias or treatises."Anthony Grafton, "The World of the Polyhistors: Humanism and Encyclopedism" in Grafton, Bring Out Your Dead: The Past as Revelation (Harvard University Press, 2001: ISBN 067400468X), p. 166.

Polymath 

A polymath (Greek polymath?s, ?????????, "having learned much")The term was first recorded in written English in the early seventeenth century is a person, with superior intelligence, whose expertise spans a significant number of subject areas. In less formal terms, a polymath (or polymathic person) may simply refer to someone who is very knowledgeable. Most ancient scientists were polymaths by today's standards.1 Introduction: Greek Science in Context

The terms Renaissance man and, less commonly, homo universalis (Latin for "universal man" or "man of the world") are related and used to describe a person who is well educated or who excels in a wide variety of subjects or fields.Encarta dictionary. The idea developed in Renaissance Italy from the notion expressed by one of its most accomplished representatives, Leon Battista Alberti (1404?72): that ?a man can do all things if he will.? It embodied the basic tenets of Renaissance Humanism which considered humans empowered, limitless in their capacities for development, and led to the notion that people should embrace all knowledge and develop their capacities as fully as possible. Thus the gifted humans of the Renaissance sought to develop skills in all areas of knowledge, in physical development, in social accomplishments and in the arts.
